When advertisements start making sense

Mapo-tofu... so salivating right.



I was browsing through some Internet applications and I saw an advertisement saying, "Soy proteins make you fat and increase your belly fat"!


Before you read any further, you should know that I love soy products. Tofu is an addiction, unfortunately for me. =(


But I do love tofu lah, not forced to like it or something.


Mr. Mike Geary, a Certified Personal Trainer, Certified Nutrition Specialist says that many people are deceived and misled into believing soy protein, soy milk, soybean oil, and processed soy foods are "healthy"... when the truth is that soy has many anti-nutrients and negative factors on the body that we should be concerned about - like increasing your stomach fat.


Ouch. Now I know why...

Romans 14:20
Do not destroy the work of God for the sake of food. All food is clean, but it is wrong for a man to eat anything that causes someone else to stumble.


Food for thought, literally!

My Love for Bibimbap.

Before mixing:


After mixing:


In this new year I got to taste one of Korea's most popular dishes.

I want to eat Bibimbap, again!

The picture is super appetizing, right? Just got to ignore the photographer's saliva though. Haha, no, this is not my picture. I went to Google it.

The rice is really crunchy. Mmmm.

And did I mentioned that Koreans dine with long spoons? I thought they made me look so cool eh. Finally, long spoons to match my longer fingers! Lol.

Signing off,
Classes in less than 48 hours. There goes my sleep.
But I'm excited to meet familiar faces again!

Bitter Gourd

While everybody still can't get enough of 4th of July, I'm posting something else. Lol.

Thank you guys for posting my name on your blogs! Wherever I blog-hopped, I saw myself and let me tell you, it feels good! Hahahahahaha.

Had dinner before this, my dad+my mom+I (my sister wasn't there hahah) ate at this restaurant with a straight-forward-here-it-hits-you-name, Restoran Fu Kua, which translates directly into English as "The Bitter Gourd Restaurant". That's right, what a cool name.

Anyways, it's a good place to eat at. But it wasn't like that the first time. Honestly, I dreaded walking into that shop! I was like many youths today where you can label me as the I-hate-bitter-gourd-so-no-point-asking-me-to-try-it teenager.

So maybe I've grown out of the teenager shell since I LOVE to eat bitter gourd now.

"Seriously, she must be joking!"

"No, I'm not."

That place cooks bitter gourd until its soft like anything. Which means it's nice. Soft=nice. Other examples of soft food which I love include tofu, soya, etc -- that's why I'm fair ma lol. Not really. It's a myth lar.

This post is random. Yikes. Think I should stop crapping now. *Shows pictures*






Disclaimer : These pictures do not belong to me. I do not own them. Though I wish to eat them? Lol.
